Default Dodged a bullet...

Had quite the panic moment last night when I got home from work.

The condo supervisor approaches me as I got in the lobby telling me there was an incident in the parking garage and they were changing the remote codes.

When I asked her what happened, she responds: "One of the ragtops had it's roof slashed and the contents stolen."

Well, one in three chance it's mine because aside from the S there is a Boxster S and a Saab 93 convertible in the building.

Turns out it was the Saab but it sucks either way.

sux2bhim.

sounds like your parking lot allows visitors to easily access the resident level parking lot.

ever since i lived here, 3 cars have been broken into - face it, nowhere is 100% safe.

^ that should NEVER happen..

i know certain Condos that have security like prisons.. good for the residents, bad for visitors..

I'd contact the head of the security in a DOGMAN like manner and just blast 'em.. Heads would roll if it was my car, my building

Actually mine, the Boxster and the Saab are all beside the elevator.

The guy is on tape exiting the elevators just before 6am. Either someone let him in or he has a key. (unlikely)

I can't figure who'd let a stranger into the building at 6am?

Probably a tired, lazy security guard... you should have a chit-chat with your building management. Well anyway, anyone know if the building can be held responsible for any sort of vandalizism on your personal property? Indirectly, it is their fault since they are incharge of security (and you pay them management fees too.)
